Who prefers carbines over automags? I do, because of these reasons:
- the balls shot by a carbine have a much larger velocity and thus accuracy.
- an automag gets overheated before you know it (this applies only to certain games, of course).
- the same goes for the balls, which run out in an instant, so to say.
- I like leaving the mags for my teammates who prefer them 8).

Weapon-- Rate of Fire-- Ball Speed --Accuracy
PGP-- 1.0 (61 balls/min) --1.08 --decent
Trracer --2.4 (147 balls/min)-- 1.10
Stringray --3.4 (208 balls/min) --0.95
VM-68 --4.00 (245 balls/min)-- 0.90
Spyder SE --4.6 (277 balls/min)-- 0.94
Carbine-- 5.1 (306 balls/min)-- 1.10
Autococker-- 5.4 (329 balls/min) --1.08-- best
Automag --6.2 (375 balls/min) --0.90
and no Carbine doesn't out beat Automag!!!

Are you talking about real life, or in the game?
In real life idc, in game i prefer carbine because its dark, sleek and sexy and turns me on.
-
Yes.
-
I usually prefer the carbine, but that's because I usually play on larger maps where I need more accuracy at long range. Automags are hard to beat on small maps though. (I didn't realize the carbine accuracy was higher than the autococker.)

The digital version of course, or I would be posting at the wrong website.
Edit: And didn't I tell you I am 12? :o :o :o

Any gun is decent for this game. I play with pretty much whatever gun I can pick up first.

Yeah, Kilo is a.k.a. TrracerBoy

Pball guns get frozen, not overheated. If co2 got hotter as you shot it, there would be no problem with it in winter games. :)
-
Yeah Fullmetal I like it when people say they overheat. Anyways..
Carbine > Automag in just about every situation.
I'm sure most of the good players will agree too.
-
The PGP outranks the rest of the guns in this game by far. ;D

And y00tz too...

Hmm...that's quite logical, actually. I don't know from where I got that stupid overheating-idea, but it's also my lack of thought.

It's my favourite gun. My accuracy with it is nearer 100% than 0% ;D.
-
The Automag is something I do not touch. It does not look sexy, it does not sound sexy, and its accuracy is not sexy.
-
sk89q is all about sex appeal...
-
To bad he's not sexy :D
-
Pfft. You've never seen me :P

Carbine-- 5.1 (306 balls/min)-- 1.10
Automag --6.2 (375 balls/min) --0.90
More of a long distance vs short distance, no?
Carbine could be used when the enemies far (and by snipers). While the Automag could be used in close quarters (and by sprayers). Or it could just be personal preference.
as for pgp, thats the best AND the worst gun, depending on whos using it o.O
-
The accuracies of all the guns are close enough that it doesn't really make a difference. What DOES make a difference is the barrel you have. Huge difference.
-
Pfft. You've never seen me :P
Nor do I want to :D

Carbine is, I hate how the automag balls slant down like crazy, hate shooting at people even from medium range just doesn't work. The carbine on the other hand is a bit slower, 10x more accurate, easy to shoot on target at medium range and fairly good at long range and looks a hell of a lot better than the automag.
So overall carbine is far > automag.
Edit: Edited this for you marth
-
its lighter too so you can jump faster

Please, do us all a favor and use a little thing called a comma. -.-

Guns have weight in dp? I thought the accuracy, ball speed, and balls per second were the only differences. *shrugs* what else is there? :P (seriously, im curious now :P)
-
carbine is a little smaller so your less likely to get hit, opposed to the automag and autococker
-

...yeah, and the mag is shiny and less camouflaged than the carbine.
-
don't you have the same gun model no matter what?
-

I think so. The default gun looks somewhat like a Trracer/Stingray/Carbine.
-
yes
-
It's a carbine. There's no other vweps
-
yeah, so what is nightryder talking about? if its the same model, theres not a difference in how likely you are to get hit...
-
pretty sure we just explained the joke. unless he was actually serious (I wasn't), which I sincerely hope he was joking.
-
Well I actually do jump faster with the carbine than cocker. Lighter and more streamlined, the cocker seriously weighs you down, and when you land you made a louder "thump" with it.
-
I dunno, I think the automag looks sexier than the carbine:

Just needs to be remodeled.

Way sexier.

Yeah, on these pics it looks really better than carbine, but I like carbine more in the game :P.

Please don't revive nearly one year old threads for pointless comments.
